Puligny Montrachet Clavoillon Domaine Leflaive 2002

Domaine Leflaive Puligny-Montrachet Clavoillon 2002 is a medium-bodied Burgundy white wine from the Premier Cru climat of Le Clavoillon in the Puligny-Montrachet appellation of the Côte de Beaune. Now led by Brice de la Morandière, Domaine Leflaive is one of the most influential estates in Puligny-Montrachet. The estate focuses almost entirely on white wines made from Chardonnay, including four Grand Cru and four Premier Cru expressions. This particular cuvée comes from Le Clavoillon, a Premier Cru vineyard in the centre of the Puligny-Montrachet appellation where Leflaive owns a 4.8-hectare plot. "A now fully mature nose is notably elegant with lovely white flower, citrus and peach aromas that blend into round, sweet, nicely plump and fresh middle weight flavours that display real verve and fine finishing complexity. This is beautifully balanced and I like the clean and dry finish. This is drinking perfectly though should continue to do so if well-stored." Burghound, 2011
